THEY want them boring old "community standards" colors! Brown, earth tones, etc.

:-(

I am SORRY I ever bought and am restorting a house in Bel Nor MO! :-(

That sucks big time. You can't even do what you want to with
your own house. Sounds like a condo association but I know
that cities have "standards" too.

My best advice to you which you always ignore...
Cancel that overpriced roof and sell your house for
as much as you can get.

Then rent from another cheap chinese landlord for very
low rent and use your money to live nicely in a rented
room that some other landlord has to maintain.

Do it, John! I hope you do.

Restoring is bringing back those earth tones. Lavender is not
restoration. You won't see those colors used in historic buildings if
they were not there in the beginning.

I CAN'T ignore! It's an annual (because I rent rooms) Occupancy Permit Inspection!

I wanna SELL this house and move! :-( Bel Nor SUCKS! :-(

That'so true, Ed. Communities have standards for a reason: property
values. I've always thought his house has a very nice exterior, a
1930's brick craftsman bungalow style. He's f'd it up with the lavender
porch and pink and purple deck. It doesn't fit the neighborhood. He's
still trying to play "hippie" even though he's too young to have been one.

As a protest, you could paint the whole place olive drab or camo.

I guess your plans to be the mayor of Bel-Nor are dead?

You can't read very well either. What did Gary suggest you ignore?

I can only guess it's the agency involved with inspecting and approving
his occupancy permits. Either that or his neighbors have been
complaining to the city council or whoever else will listen.

Stick it to them by tearing off your community standard clay tile
roof and putting on slate grey comp shingles (or lavender if you can
find them - GAF will make any color you want).

Half pink and half purple to match the deck. Or maybe have them lay
the shingles out so as to get a pink rainbow on a purple
background. Very tasteful for da Loo.

You keep referring to your lavender front porch as "Grandma's".
My grandmother would have considered that to be extremely tacky.

Get the roof done as planned and I will pay 85000 cash.
